5/5
As a health care professional I did a great deal of research prior to having laser surgery with wavefront technology, in particular. Mr David Anderson is one of the leading Consultant Ophthalmologists which is why I chose him to perform my surgery. During the consultation I was very much assured that I was in good hands, but also having the ‘Gold Standard’ of laser eye surgery. It was explained that my best option was LASEK due to an eye infection rendering me contact lens intolerant. This also left me with a slightly reduced tear film or dry eyes. Mr Anderson informed me during the consent process that it may be particularly painful post operatively and a slightly longer recovery time as apposed to having LASIK, I did prepare for this.
The operation itself was painless and lasted approx 15minutes from start to finish, for both eyes. The second I sat up from the operating table I looked over to a sharps bin and, although still slightly blurry, I was able to read it. It was amazing. I followed post operative instructions to the letter and was expecting pain but was fortunate as I was very comfortable and only suffered very mild discomfort. Was able to go out for lunch the following day and by day 3 I was examined and deemed fit to resume driving. I was also very impressed with the after care I received. It is now 18months since my surgery and it really has been life changing in every way. Swimming, showering, getting up to children in the middle of the night and not having to reach for my specs. I can not recommend more highly Mr David Anderson and his company for the excellent care I received.
